I've seen a lot about piwik. I'll research some solutions too.

Any specific analytics you are interested in? And how thorough? Example: how many clicks has marker X had since launch.

Well, we definitely want to see how many visitors and referral stats, plus info on platforms and browsers. That much is obvious.

We definitely want to know something about the geographic location of our users.

Beyond that, I'm not sure what is helpful or what is even feasible. View on individual pins would be nice. Outbound click stats would be nice.

Well since we have access always to users ip, City, state, lat and long we might could even roll our own on locations of users (and integrate it into admin dashboard!)

Building clicks on markers (and knowing with marker was clicked how many times) is stupid simple.

I'm researching to see what all Piwik offers and weighing it against the fact that it's DB is RDB not NoSQL.

I actually built an analytics gathering engine in ruby+mongo. Piwik offers some nice charts (sure we could build ourselves, but would take time).

Just talking out loud here. Piwik is easy (but not sure how easy to put on our app server in addition to meteor/mongo).
